In name only, I, Gao Yuliang, will sink Handong at worst.

Everyone entered the conference room. Besides the four people already present, the three deputy directors of the Public Security Bureau had also arrived. This kind of matter always requires a leader, and it's not something Qi Tongwei can handle alone; it also requires the cooperation of the provincial party secretary and governor from the neighboring province, as well as the Public Security Bureau.

We'll have to go over and coordinate those resources later.

After listening to these reports, Hao Liang felt good.

"Have you taken all the necessary precautions to maintain confidentiality?"

"Everything is done. Currently, only we know about it. Apart from Governor Liu and Secretary Gao Yuliang, we all live in the Public Security Bureau and have monitored all relevant mobile phones and phone calls, including those of Governor Liu and Secretary Gao Yuliang. We have obtained their consent for this."

"That's good. Governor Liu and I can attest to that. If it weren't for the fact that we both have so many things to do, we would even like to live in the Public Security Bureau here." Gao Yuliang raised his hand directly.

After chatting for a while, Qi Tongwei sent the deputy director out to take charge of the work.

"I want to go over there and see how they did their job. They left such a huge cancer in the heart of the country."

"I'll arrange for a car to wait for you downstairs right away." Gao Yuliang quickly reached out to stop Qi Tongwei.

Everyone's attention fell on Gao Yuliang.

"Secretary Yuliang, is there something you need?"

"I have something I'd like to report to the Ministry of Public Security. I wonder if I could take up Minister Hao's time?"

Liu Changsheng never expected such a thing to happen. The entire village's drug production was reported by phone; there was nothing that needed to be reported in person.

Could it be that Gao Yuliang has somehow managed to curry favor with the Ministry of Public Security? He, Lao Liu, couldn't compare to Zhao Lichun, and now he can't even compare to Gao Yuliang below him.

Hao Liang nodded, then gestured for Qi Tongwei and Liu Changsheng to leave. Qi Tongwei went to another place to entertain Governor Liu. The Public Security Bureau usually reported to the Provincial Government quite often, and now they were going to the other party's office.

Gao Yuliang went to the door and took the bag his secretary was carrying. He then slowly sat down. Hao Liang looked at Gao Yuliang with curiosity, wondering what kind of work the other party intended to report.

"My daughter went to study in the United States. I visited her before and found that the United States is quite open, so there are a lot of those kinds of things. The online environment there is also quite chaotic. I can directly see videos of sexual abuse in some videos. Moreover, in many states in the United States, adults can marry children after raping them. This kind of thing is legal in many states in the United States."

"My first thought was of children adopted by Americans, so I did some research. There are over 100,000 children in China who have been adopted by Americans, and more than 90% of them are girls. I contacted some people, mainly to investigate children who were adopted from Handong, and I did the investigation under the guise of a follow-up visit."

"But the results are shocking!" Gao Yuliang directly gave the investigation report to Minister Hao and explained it himself.

"More than 5,000 people have been adopted in Handong. From last year to now, we can only contact more than 300 families. Among them, we cannot contact 3,000 families. Among the remaining 2,000 families, we have visited people in the surrounding area who can prove that the other family adopted a child, but the child disappeared or died a few years later."

"Among the 300 girls in the families I contacted, about 290 admitted to being sexually assaulted or abused. Many of these are original statements and recordings from direct interviews, which I can provide. These girls were adopted in recent years. If it had been a long time, I really don't know what would have happened. I also have an article I wrote specifically about this kind of thing."

Hao Liang kept turning the pages, his face turning ashen as he went.

Are these reports all true?

"It's all true. This is a hard drive containing all the information my people gathered." Gao Yuliang took a black mechanical hard drive out of his briefcase.

"When I get back, I will first stop this kind of adoption, and I will send someone to help investigate."

"Then I'll leave everything to Minister Hao. On behalf of the children of Handong and the whole country, thank you."

"If you hadn't spoken up and investigated this matter, our sins would have been enormous. Countless children would have suffered abroad. Throughout the country, countless institutions and individuals responsible for this matter remained silent and did not investigate. In the end, it was only through the investigation by the Political and Legal Affairs Commission that this was discovered."

"Are they all just sitting around doing nothing?" Hao Liang couldn't help but slam his fist on the table, making a loud bang.

Gao Yuliang knew that the other party wasn't targeting him, but was insulting others. It was an orphanage, after all; how much money could they possibly have for follow-up visits? Moreover, it was a cross-border operation, making supervision extremely difficult.

However, after so long, it's understandable that they didn't know anything or discover anything.

"Besides me, have you given this information to anyone else?"

"No, there's another copy kept in the safe in my office."

Finally, when Minister Hao went to the neighboring province, his face was completely black. Liu Changsheng and Qi Tongwei noticed this and didn't dare to say anything.

"Yuliang, what did you say to Minister Hao? Why are you so angry!"

"Let's wait until the higher-ups make a decision! It wouldn't be good if it affected them."

There are no secrets in officialdom, and this kind of thing quickly spread to many places in Handong. First, the Public Security Bureau reported on the matter, and then Gao Yuliang somehow offended Minister Hao.

Judging from that expression, how could it be so dark if he hadn't offended the other party?

Some places in Handong and the capital city are keeping an eye on this place.

When Zhao Lichun first learned of this news, he was worried that Gao Yuliang had found a new powerful ally. He found out in the morning, but by the afternoon he learned that Gao Yuliang seemed to have fallen out with the other party.
